Presentations by Emory Douglas, Social Justice Artist and the former Minister of Culture for the Black Panther Party, and “Revolutionary Grain” photographer Susanna Lamaina
Panel discussion and Q&A with former Black Panther Party members Billy X Jennings, Ericka Huggins, Gayle “Asali” Dixon, and Malik Edwards
Live music by Bob Jones and the Chosen Few and DJ
Line dancing with Tina B. & the Sacramento Soul Line Dancers
